As you all know, a lot of Filipino women or “Pinay” has been flocking to internet cafes in order to search for a foreign husband. Although there are those who are truly looking for true love online, there are only those whose main purpose is to marry for reasons of money. That is why some of these women resort to any kind of scheme in order that they could marry foreigners.

I believe there is nothing wrong if you desire that the person you marry is financially stable. In fact, it is considered a good decision to marry somebody who is financially stable even if not necessarily well off.

I am not saying that marrying foreigners is wrong. In fact I know several people, among them friends and family members who are happily married to foreigners.

I hope I am not taken out of context here. I reiterate, I have nothing against Filipino women marrying rich foreigners. That is perfectly all right with me, for as long as they marry because of true love for their foreign spouse.

What I am critically against is when a Filipino woman marry foreigners for financial reasons or just in order that they could be saved from poverty or for the purpose of going abroad.

This might be very unthinkable that this is happening but this is really happening in reality. These women have “prostituted” themselves just to achieve more material wealth. These type of women do not even care if who they are marrying is older than their grandfathers.

A rather disturbing situation is that some married Filipino women are presenting themselves as single online. I have heard of horror stories wherein marriages has been broken because the wife has a “foreign” boyfriend while living with her husband.

What could be more scandalous than that situation. But brace yourself for the ultimate scandal, the ultimate scandal is that some Filipino husbands just tolerate what their wives are doing for as long as the money keeps on coming. The husband simply presents himself as a relative when the foreigner comes to the Philippines.

What a shame this brings to us as a nation. However this is really not the ultimate scandal, the ultimate scandal is not doing something about it. This is certainly the worst of all scandals which we come to know as “Pinay Scandal
